Role of the Mean Nocturnal Baseline Impedance in Identifying Evidence Against Pathologic Reflux in Patients With Refractory Gastroesophageal Reflux Disease Symptoms as Classified by the Lyon Consensus.

The MNBI has a good diagnostic value for evidence against pathological reflux in patients with refractory GERD symptoms. For its simplicity and reproducibility, we believe that MNBI should be referred to in reports of impedance-pH tracings by physicians.

Endoscopy

Post Endoscopy Barrett's Neoplasia (PEBN) After A Negative Index Endoscopy: A Systematic Review & Proposal For Definitions and Performance Measures in Endoscopy.

Neoplasia detected at or within 6 months of index endoscopy account for most of the Barrett's neoplasia(>90%). Post-Endoscopy Barrett's Neoplasia account for ~3% of cases and can be used for validation in future. This highlights the importance of a high-quality index endoscopy in Barrett's Esophagus and the need to establish quality benchmarks to measure endoscopists' performance.

Diagnostic accuracy of convolutional neural network-based endoscopic image analysis in diagnosing gastric cancer and predicting its invasion depth: a systematic review and meta-analysis.

CNN is highly accurate in diagnosing gastric cancer and predicting the invasion depth of gastric cancer. The performance of the CNN in diagnosing gastric cancer is not significantly different from that of expert endoscopists. Studies of the real-time performance of CNN for gastric cancer diagnosis are needed to confirm these findings.

Placebo effect on progression and regression in NASH: Evidence from a meta-analysis.

Despite the absence of any pharmacological interventions, a significant proportion of patients in the placebo arm demonstrated improvements in liver histology, highlighting the possibility that NASH is a disease that can not only progress but regress spontaneously over time. Additionally, histologic response in placebo-treated patients is helpful in future design of phase 2B and phase 3 trials.

On-demand Versus Continuous Maintenance Treatment of Gastroesophageal Reflux Disease With Proton Pump Inhibitors: A Systematic Review and Meta-analysis.

On-demand PPI therapy shows comparable efficacy to the continuous maintenance treatment in the non-erosive esophageal reflux disease and mild erosive reflux disease group, and can remarkably reduce the amount of PPI use. Therefore, on-demand therapy may be preferentially recommended in the maintenance treatment of GERD unaccompanied by severe esophagitis.

Epidemiology of Helicobacter pylori.

In many countries alike, the time trends of gastric cancer, gastric and duodenal ulcer, ulcerative colitis, Crohn's disease, and colorectal cancer are characterized by similar birth-cohort patterns. Mortality from these diagnoses rose in cohorts born during the 19th century and then fell in subsequent cohorts born during the 20th century.

Liver-related and extrahepatic events in patients with non-alcoholic fatty liver disease: a retrospective competing risks analysis.

The likelihood of EHE in NAFLD patients is relevant and increases according to the severity of liver fibrosis, while the risk of LRE is negligible in F0-F1, low but clinically relevant in F2 and high in F3-F4 patients.

A Prospective Cohort Study of Novel Markers of Hepatitis B Virus Replication in Human Immunodeficiency Virus Coinfection.

In HBV-HIV coinfected adults on suppressive dually active antiviral therapy, the use of novel HBV markers reveals continued improvement in suppression of HBV transcription and translation over time. The lack of further improvement in HBV serum biomarkers among HBeAg- patients suggests limits to the benefit of combination anti-viral therapy and provide rationale for additional agents with distinct mechanisms of action.

Clip Closure Does Not Reduce Risk of Bleeding After Resection of Large Serrated Polyps: Results From a Randomized Trial.

The post-procedure bleeding risk for LSPs removed via EMR is low, and there is no discernable benefit of prophylactic clipping of the resection base in this group. This study indicates that the benefit of endoscopic clipping following EMR may be specific for >2 cm adenomatous polyps located in the proximal colon. ClinicalTrials.gov, Number NCT01936948.

High-Definition Colonoscopy Compared With Cuff- and Cap-Assisted Colonoscopy: Results From a Multicenter, Prospective, Randomized Controlled Trial.

Results from this multicenter randomized controlled trial do not show any significant benefit of using either distal attachment devices (CF or CP) over HDWLE, at least in high-detector endoscopists. The Endocuff may have an advantage in the screening population. (ClinicalTrials.gov, Number NCT03952611).

Low Accuracy of FIB-4 and NAFLD Fibrosis Scores for Screening for Liver Fibrosis in the Population.

FIB-4 and NFS are suboptimal for screening purposes due to a high risk of overdiagnosis and a non-negligible percentage of false-negatives, especially in patients with risk factors for chronic liver disease. Waist circumference emerged as a potential first step to identify patients at risk for liver fibrosis in the general population.

Novel Diagnostic Autoantibodies Against Endothelial Protein C Receptor in Patients With Ulcerative Colitis.

3 Interestingly, this autoantibody was found in most patients with TAK associated with UC, and we found that the positivity rate in patients with UC without TAK was also high, suggesting that anti-EPCR antibody is a candidate autoantibody useful for the diagnosis of UC. 4 To clarify the diagnostic usefulness of anti-EPCR antibodies in patients with IBD and their relationship to several disease subphenotypes and their disease activities, we analyzed the serum samples from patients with IBD and non-IBD control subjects in Japan and the United States.

Intestinal Cathelicidin Antimicrobial Peptide Shapes a Protective Neonatal Gut Microbiota against Pancreatic Autoimmunity.

We identified whether a defective colonic expression in the CRAMP antimicrobial peptide induces dysbiosis contributing to autoimmunity in the pancreas. Hence, the manipulation of intestinal antimicrobial peptides may be considered a relevant therapeutic approach to prevent autoimmune diabetes in at-risk children.

Comparison of functional lumen imaging probe and high-resolution manometry to assess response after peroral endoscopic myotomy.

Normal FLIP metrics =6 months after POEM for achalasia show good to excellent sensitivity but are equivalent to a normalized IRP by HRM to predict clinical response by Eckardt scores. FLIP may be used as an alternative to HRM to assess LES response to POEM in these patients. (ClinicalTrials.gov NCT02770859.).

Treatment strategies for reducing early and late recurrence of colonic diverticular bleeding based on stigmata of recent hemorrhage: a large multicenter study.

Humoral response to SARS-CoV-2 infection among liver transplant recipients.

Our findings suggest that the humoral response of LT recipients is only slightly lower than expected, compared with COVID-19 immunocompetent controls. Testing for anti-S antibodies alone can lead to an overestimation of the neutralising ability in LT recipients. Altogether, routine antibody testing against separate SARS-CoV-2 antigens and functional testing show that the far majority of LT patients are capable of mounting an adequate antibody response with neutralising ability.

Predictive Factors for Future Onset of Reflux Esophagitis: A Longitudinal Case-control Study Using Health Checkup Records.

The RE group displayed a greater worsening of the clinical parameters associated with lifestyle diseases, including obesity, diabetes, hyperlipidemia, and fatty liver for 5 years before RE onset compared with the non-RE group. These results suggest that RE is a lifestyle disease and thus lifestyle guidance to at-risk person may help to prevent RE onset.
